Village Books & Music

The new Village Books & Music store by Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i will be open to the public beginning Saturday, February 27, 2021. Thousands of books, CDs, DVDs, vinyl records, games, works of art, and much more will be available for sale!

The store is conveniently located at the former Pier 1 Imports space at 1142 Auahi Street, Honolulu. Ample parking is available in the adjacent structure.  

Generously sponsored by Ward Village and Hawai‘i State Federal Credit Union, the store will be open until Summer 2021, giving book and music lovers three months to browse our collections. Inventory will be restocked daily and rotated periodically. Please check back often for new items.
